Re: JAEGER REV COUNTERS FOR AIRCRAFT With reference to your Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Wst3/MA.4.12.35, we remember having had some correspondence with Dor.{Mr Dorey} in connection with the purchase of an electric rev counter manufactured by Jaeger. As far as we can trace from our files, we quoted a price to Lr.{Mr Ellor}'s Department, but since then we do not remember having any instructions as to whether we should do anything further in the matter. Incidentally, last time we telephoned to Messrs. Jaeger, they did not seem to be very much enclined to give us particulars of their new instrument and referred us to their Agents in London. Will you please kindly find out from Dor{Mr Dorey}: a.{Mr Adams} whether he has been in correspondence with Jaeger direct, b. whether any steps have been taken to order an electric rev counter from the above firm. As soon as we have your reply, we will call on Messrs. Jaeger and endeavour to obtain the necessary information. The writer is leaving for Brussels to-morrow, but expects to be back in Paris towards the end of the week. MNG. | ||
